Coronary artery perforation is an uncommon, but potentially devastating, complication of PCI, and is observed most frequently in complex procedures. Clinical outcomes, including periprocedural and long‐term mortality, are markedly worse with increasing degree of perforation. Perforation required covered stent usage predicts a high in‐hospital and overall mortality, although no difference is noted between covered stent type.
